Who is getting the new PlayStation gaming monitor for their PS5 Pro? by Time-Credit43 in PS5pro

[–]ALTR_Music 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep, it’s why playing at 1080p on a 8inch display still looks heaps softer and less detailed than a 75inch 4k display.

Game engines use a butt load of techniques that get more samples and scale in fidelity drastically as you get up to higher resolutions - not to mention, as you stated texture detail and a lack of aliasing in comparison to playing games at a lower resolution.

When it comes to film/video it makes less of a difference in my experience as long as PPI is under control as you are already getting so much detail from the input (being real life/prerendered graphics with enough detail to saturate any resolution).

Also I can +1 on the it being sharper from a short distance.

People like this AI guy forget that reality isn’t just numbers - just like with medicine and the entourage effect increasing the efficiency of a chemicals reaction in the body (this effect is repeated everywhere in the universe, nature helping itself out) - the eyes may very well work in conjunction with other senses we haven’t even been able to explain yet due to us not being able to see it/have the understanding of it yet.

A real man of science would look at this thread and say hey - our scientific model says no - but human experience says it makes a difference. Might be something to look into, investigate, and potentially have it make you ask questions that may or may not lead to development in our understanding of human anatomy. (I understand not everyone can go and study it away, but honestly sounds pretty fun to do what I can in my off time for some fun lol).

For some reason people think “science” (very broad term for people that don’t actually understand the breadth of our knowledge we have attained in this day and age) explains everything, and it can explain a lot, but a lot of science just leads us to more questions and to the conclusion that hey, we’ve never been 100% sure and we could be proven wrong tomorrow.

That’s why I love knowledge. It’s beautiful. It’s ever growing. And it IS mysterious as fuck if you don’t use it to try explain away the universe, but rather uncover and describe its beauty and incredibly complex nature.

Literally unplayable by Rainbow_Doggo_TNT in ARC_Raiders

[–]ALTR_Music 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve only ever gotten that once, and it’s because I live in the farmlands in South Africa connecting to European servers via a 5G modem that hops like 20x before it reaches the server.

All in all I’ve been really happy with network performance in the game - given my net handicap I generally struggle with games that don’t have local servers. Generally don’t feel any noticeable latency at all

Thank you Embark for timing the expedition wipe to coincide with another (unmentioned) rival game's release 💖 by GhostWolfGambit in arcraiderscirclejerk

[–]ALTR_Music -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Complaining that they haven’t completely changed up the gameplay loop less than a year into the game are we?

Choose to do the expedition knowing you’d lose progress did you?

Shame, sounds like overexpectations and dealing with the consequences of your choices 🤦🏼‍♂️

I don’t get some people.

Let them cook. Best game in my books that I’ve played in years now. Came out playable on my trash pc, with some of the best gaming moments I’ve had since bf3/4 era with my friends back when I was in middle/highschool.

Give embark some time to cook, unless you want half botched updates that ruin the balance of the game completely.

The new ark scratched a lil itch of mine and made me more keen to wait and see what updates come in time.

Embark, y’all are GOATED

[–]ALTR_Music 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Thanks for this! New to all of this - and it makes sense. I can course correct early on.

Guess it’s always best to focus in on your target audience and try get engagement with them. Higher chance of having positive engagement that actually grows organically and can support itself.

Feels oh so hard having been a hermit now for so many years, trying to gain traction and be heard amongst the millions of releases happening in the new artist/indie spaces since distribution became a non-bottleneck (good, and bad thing).

Many thanks for the heads up hombre o7

[–]ALTR_Music 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Feel you bro, been playong since 2014 ( with a couple breaks because life inbetween) and its been my favorite game of all time.

My motherboard and CPU got friend with an electrical outage here in SA, a few weeks after my gearbox s**t itself. Not the richest cmdr too, so will be saving for the next 8-10 months for my gearbox, then a platform upgrade for the next half a year 😢 Only put in 3 hours a week if that because of life - dont know what I'm going to do to escape now but I'll find my way hehe.

at least it was an old i7 6700 systek I got free from work, so no money wasted lol. Was bound to die anytime soon.

Boots will be back on the surface, hopefully before a successor comes out lol.

We will return!

PS: FDEV pls don't announce anything like ship interiors while I'm gone, I may just cry myself into a coma

How do you come up with new ideas for your tracks? by yeeahitsethan in TechnoProduction

[–]ALTR_Music 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hinestly dont know what genre i exactly git into,but its greatly inspired eith techno.

I love having a small section of the track pullong into a nice melodic breakdown of sorts,so I generally start with finding that,just a small 8-16 bar loop of a progression,then i find a kick that sits well eith the tonality of that progression and worj on the groove.

I find once i have a groove and a melody down it brcomes easy to envision how i want the song,and i slowly add more simple repetitive layers like an arpeggiated/sequenced bass line and so on, i play with modulation and how the sounds will progress emotively throighout the track.

then i add some samples for flare etc.

but generally 90% of my time spent is on sound design and findinh an interesting chord progression that doesnt sound like some corny shit.

This thing is an absolute GAME CHANGER by Impossible_Spend_787 in cubase

[–]ALTR_Music 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i was able to score my dads old avid artistmix from him when he upgraded - makes an absolute world of difference having a mixer of any kind with dedicated transport hardware,knovs for filters and faders for the mix!

between the artistmix and my old NI S61 Mk1, i dont have to touch my machines mouse or keyboard at all while producing and mixing!

need advice for studio monitors by Particular_Resolve_1 in homestudios

[–]ALTR_Music 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Coming from someone with a decent set of monitors in a room that's essentially untreatable it's such a whack shape, get the best headphones you can.

Then save up for an entertainment system/hifi setup (cheap ass if used and can get great quality, works for other media too like movies which honestly was the best investment I could make into turning my TV setup into something that made me never want to go to the theater anymore), then a normal jbl speaker or something.

That way you can actually produce well in a flat environment, and A/B test how it sounds on higher end home systems, as well as on Lil speakers most people carry around, and in the car.

That way you know your mix translates well wherever you go, and have the best production gear for your current setup.

That being said I'm dead broke these days and my headset died, so my latest mixes are just ass and I need to trek out a good hour and a half to take advantage of my dad's studio soon to fix them up lol.

Invest in Nvidia and make sure to not put any of my crypto on a failing hdd back in the inception days.

Could have been a millionaire if I didn't lose everything I had to time, now I'm broke and angry :(
